The B.C. government has banned angling in streams and rivers on Vancouver Island and the Gulf islands, because of low stream levels, and drought.

The province has upped the drought rating for both areas to its highest level — Level 4 — and brought in new restrictions to protect the waning aquifers.




EDIT: Oops, got the date wrong. Should be July 3 2015
 
This is good news for Van Island fish and their guardians. Hopefully we will get some rain soon.
